This book is dedicated to one of the most important artists of the 20th Century.
 Marcel Duchamp challenged the conventional, especially with his pivotal work, Fountain (1907). It was a urinal hung on an art gallery wall.
The original has been lost.

Duchamp explored artistic processes and art marketing. He once wrote — “The creative act is not performed by the artist alone; the spectator brings the work in contact with the external world by deciphering and interpreting its inner qualifications and thus adds his contribution to the creative act.”

“A bird in the hand is better than two in a bush” is a saying that dates to medieval times.
The bird is a falcon. The two in a bush are its prey. Its first citation in print can be found in A Handbook of Proverbs (1670) by John Ray.
